Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

Su Weizhong's family of four stayed at Xu's house for one night, and left after dinner the next morning.

Xu Shiyan and his wife tried to persuade him to stay but failed.

Seeing that the spring plowing is about to start, I'm busy, so I can spare two days to come and have a look. How can I stay for a long time?

Xu Shiyan borrowed a carriage from the team and sent his father-in-law and his family to the station.

I bought tickets for them and sent them on the train before returning to work in the team.

Seeing that it is almost May 1st, spring plowing will start soon, and the fields should also be tidied up.

In the field where corn was planted last year, we had to dig fences.

The corn stalks are cut down and taken away to feed the livestock, but the roots of the corn are still left in the field.

Every year before spring plowing, the corn roots have to be dug out with a pickaxe, so everyone calls it a grid or a stubble.

There is no need to worry about the bean field, just a plow stick will do.

When the weather is fine, the corn roots that have been dug out are piled up together, dried in the sun for two days, and then burned. After that, it was plowing and sowing.

Most of the land of the Second Brigade is just in front of Paotai Mountain, and the whole large area is there.

Before the spring plowing, the team held a meeting to comprehensively plan what kind of food to plant this year based on what was planted in each field last year and the indicators issued by the superior this year.

Most of the big fields are corn and soybeans, especially soybeans. Most of them are used to export and earn foreign exchange, and a lot of them are planted every year.

The Northeast is cold, and the crops have a long growing season, and only one crop of grain can be grown a year.

Farming time waits for no one, planting is late until autumn, and the corn and beans are still green, and frost is about to fall.

So at this time, we must seize the time to farm the land. No matter who it is, we must not ask for leave, and we must go to work every day.

All the cattle and horses in the team put on plow sticks to plow the ground, and someone behind them took a pickaxe to plan the row, someone carried a dung basket, poked some dung into each row with a small shovel, and then used their feet to pull some soil to cover it. .

There is no way, there are few chemical fertilizers these days, and even if they are available, they are reluctant to use them.

There is too little farm manure. After fermentation and drying, use less manure as base fertilizer, which can promote crop growth.

Fertilizer was applied in the front, and someone was carrying a basket behind him, and three or four seeds leaked from his hand, and fell into the pit accurately, and then used his feet to pull some soil to cover it, and stepped on it firmly.

Farming is hard work, and those who wield pickaxes in front of them will suffer from tired shoulders all morning.

At the back, there is a kind of stepping ridge, with one foot in the ditch and one foot in the ridge, and a long ridge comes down, the leg of the stepping ridge is sore, and the aisle begins to tiptoe.

The sunshine in early May was already abundant. After working under the sun for a whole morning, when we got off work at noon, everyone was sweating from exhaustion.

The land of the Second Brigade was neither far nor close to the village, and there was not enough time for a lunch break to go home, so they could only bring food to eat on the ground.

From the willow trees on the ground, I took off the bags with rice from all over the place.

Then he threw the pickaxe on the ground, and the person sat on the handle of the pickaxe, opened his pocket, took out dry food and gnawed.

Everyone brought a variety of meals, mostly pancakes, corn flour pancakes, and pickled cabbage heads. In this year, there are not many that I want to eat.

"Brother Xu, what's in your pancake? Why does it smell delicious?"

The meals that Xu Shiyan brought were pancakes that Zhou Guilan had rolled for him in advance.

Before Su Anying gave birth, Zhou Guilan led her daughter-in-law and daughter to bake pancakes for two days, just for the convenience of Xu Shiyan to bring meals at this time.

Inside the pancakes, there are scallions and bacon.

Bacon is the meat obtained in winter, which is salted and preserved.

Wash it with water when eating, fry it in a pan, and roll it into the pancake. Wouldn’t that be delicious?

Zhou Guilan felt sorry for her son's hard work, and was afraid that his son would lose his strength after eating too much, so she specially rolled two pancakes with meat, and the rest was green onions.

The person next to him smelled the fragrance as soon as he sniffed, and couldn't help asking.

Xu Shiyan didn't know that his mother brought him meat, and it was hard to tell, so he could only fool around.

"Isn't it fragrant? You've been exposed to the sun this morning, have you fainted?"

While talking, he quickly ate the pancakes, then picked up the kettle, and drank a few sips.

Fried biscuits, I always feel not full when I eat them. After drinking some water, I suddenly feel full of stomach.

After eating, everyone smoked a cigarette, rested for a while and started farming again. They were busy until after five o'clock in the afternoon, and then they packed up their tools and went back.

It's six o'clock when I get home, wash my face and change clothes for dinner, and then tease my son after dinner.

"Xu Haiyuan, I warn you, if you cry again, I will beat you up."

Xu Shiyan picked up his son and put him on his lap, and let the little guy lie on his back. The father and son stared at each other.

The boys of the Xu family's younger generation all use the character "Hai" in the middle and three dots of water at the end.

Xu Shiyan didn't read many books, and his nephews used the names that came out of his mouth. The baby had never been named in his previous life, so he didn't know what to name the child.

Later, I found a teacher in the elementary school and named the child Xu Haiyuan.

Anyway, Xu Shiyan thought it sounded good, so he just used it.

Xu Haiyuan was very face-saving today and didn't cry.

At the beginning of May, the weather became warmer, and the little baby was wearing a jacket and trousers, with a diaper on top and no quilt.

The little guy was lying on Xu Shiyan's lap, his two little arms were waving wildly, and his calves were kicking wildly.

Xu Shiyan looked amused, so he kissed his son's fleshy little fist.

As a result, he was accidentally punched in the face by his son.

Xiaowa didn't hit her hard, but Xu Shiyan couldn't laugh or cry.

"Okay, I just threatened you that I was going to beat you up, so give me a shot first, right?"

The little thing on the leg couldn't understand what Xu Shiyan said at all, still waving its small fists, and grinning at Xu Shiyan.

As soon as his son smiled, Xu Shiyan's heart was filled with joy. This kid always cried when he saw him. How could he ever laugh? It is simply rare.

"Mom, Haiyuan smiled at me too." Xu Shiyan hurriedly showed off to his mother happily.

As a result, before he was happy for two minutes, he suddenly felt a heat flow on his legs.

Look at it again, okay, son Xiong urinated, and this splash of urine not only wet the diaper, but also wet most of Xu Shiyan's trouser legs.

"Hey, you little bastard, how dare you pee on your dad?"

Xu Shiyan suddenly felt like crying. The pants he just changed this afternoon need to be washed again.

Xu Shiyan spoke a little louder, and when the little boy heard his father yelling at him, he suddenly became unhappy, puckered his mouth, and cried out loudly.

"No, you peed all over me, you have a reason, right?"

Xu Shiyan is speechless, he just wants to get close to his son, why is it so difficult, either crying or peeing all over him?

"What are you yelling? The child is peeing on you to see if you know each other (pouring), know what a fart.

Boy urine, good stuff, beautiful you. "

Zhou Guilan came over to take away her grandson with a smile, and gave her son a supercilious look by the way. Su Anying didn't say anything, just sat there smiling.

Well, don't say anything, anyway, since the birth of his son, his position in the family has fallen to the bottom.

Xu Shiyan got up helplessly, found another pair of trousers to change into, fetched water by himself, rubbed his son's peeed trousers twice, and hung them outside to dry.
